With all due care required when handling any topic that refers
in any way to race or color, please someone gently educate
me on the relationship between race and longevity. I have
been led to understand Asian lives longest, Anglo only slightly
behind and both way ahead of nonasian, nonwhite. Further,
if last week's Newsweek is to be believed, there is evidently
a significant difference, even after socioeconomic factors are
normalized out. What do you think? Sound true? spike
